Everyone knows the Mexican mail system is corrupt; nobody is doing anything about it. This has become a major concern now that the absentee voting law has passed and many Mexicans will be voting by mail in 2006. Originally, the PRI tried to block the law by claiming the system is corrupt. The idea of cleaning up the system apparently goes against official PRI policy.
Hundreds of exiles in Mexico from the Spanish Civil War (1930's) will begin receiving pensions from the Spanish government. I don't exactly understand what these exiles did to receive pensions (probably a European thing), but it's a nice reconciliation gesture.
